Maniflex industrial manipulators are designed to make the handling of drums, containers and cans a simple, safe and effortless operation for the operator. These intuitive tools allow you to move loads in your workspace with speed and precision. The gripping equipment, custom made, includes universal grippers for drums of different sizes and weights, suction cup systems and quick connect hooks.

Manipulators represent the ideal solution for the ergonomic handling of drums for a series of fundamental reasons, linked to the reduction of physical effort and the prevention of injuries:

Eliminate Manual Lifting: Drums, especially when full, can be extremely heavy and difficult to handle. Manual lifting exposes workers to significant risk of back and shoulder injuries. Maniflex pneumatic manipulators take the weight of the drum, completely eliminating the need for physical effort on the part of the operator.

Adaptability to different operations: There are specific manipulators for different operations with drums, which allow vertical lifting, rotation, tilting and horizontal transport. Our zero-weighters are often used to perform the following activities: loading and unloading from pallets and positioning on shelves, emptying the contents of the drum in a controlled manner, pouring liquids and powders with precision and moving the drums within the work area.

Maniflex industrial manipulators are professional equipment that transform drum handling from a potentially risky and tiring activity into a safe, efficient and ergonomic process, contributing significantly to the health and well-being of workers and to the optimization of workflows.
